Bzippy

Founded in 2008 by Bari Ziperstein, BZIPPY is a ceramic design studio specializing in hand-built furniture and housewares that merge architectural and industrial influences with a conceptual art foundation. Bari, a trained sculptor with an MFA from California Institute of the Arts, applies her background in experimental public art and intersectional feminism to create functional works that challenge traditional notions of artistic success. BZIPPY’s slab-built and extruded ceramic forms have garnered attention from top-tier interior designers and high-end showrooms, positioning the studio as a leader in contemporary ceramic design. With a transparent, team-focused ethos and a commitment to innovation, the studio blends artistry with thoughtful operations, evolving as a collaborative and dynamic practice that prioritizes both creativity and sustainability.
